In Search of Perfect Friendship
February 1, 2023 | Yoska Guta TD ‘25
Contrary to popular belief, I don’t think our fallouts with others are due to the flaws of a select few individuals. Rather, this constant failure is due to a deep insufficiency that runs rampant within each of us. One that prevents us from being, and finding that whole and perfect friend that we all seek.
The Creator’s Commission
February 1, 2023 | Marcos Barrios ES ‘24
God didn't go after Adam and fix his work, editing the names Adam chose. Certainly, God would have chosen better, more beautiful, more meaningful names for the animals. But like a father hanging up the messy scrawl of their child's artwork on the fridge, God proudly displays the work of His image bearer.
Tasting Eden
Feb 5th, 2021 | By Se Ri Lee MC ‘23+1
My phone started beeping sporadically in the middle of my YouTube workout. Five KakaoTalk messages popped up, all sent from Umma. Dinner was going to be served in five minutes. Grumbling under my breath, I hurried over to the kitchen. “I’ll eat the leftovers later – is that okay? I had lunch like two hours ago,” I told Umma apologetically.
Logos Reviews: Eden Reimagined in First Cow

NOTE: Spoilers ahead
Kelly Reichardt’s minimalist film First Cow[1] premiered in August of 2019 at Telluride and enjoyed an extremely limited release in March this year before it was pulled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Earlier this week, it was made available for rental on digital, and I was able to enjoy what has been hailed as one of the best movies of the year.[2] Slow and friendly, the film concerns the adventures of Cookie, a trapper and cook in the Oregon Territory in the 1820s, and his new companion, King-Lu, a Chinese immigrant with a fuzzy history and fuzzier intentions.
